  <dc:title>Letter from Henry Higgs, 3 Lexham Gardens, to [Joseph] Larmor</dc:title>
  <dc:description>With regret, he must release Larmor from his promise of £100 towards a Chair for [Herbert Somerton] Foxwell. The heart has been taken out of the movement by bankers - [Felix Otto] Schuster, [Robert Harry Inglis] Palgrave and [Frederick] Huth Jackson - not contributing. If they had, others would have followed 'like a flock of sheep' and the result is 'disgusting and disheartening'. He has just returned from the United States where there was a Chair of Banking and several others in the Faculties of Economics in each serious university. It is a national disgrace that there is only one such Chair in Oxford and Cambridge.</dc:description>
